Belgian Synagogue Fire Leads to Arson Investigation

(Reuters) – Belgian prosecutors are investigating a fire at a synagogue in Brussels on Tuesday, which they say was set intentionally but does not seem to have been a “terrorist attack”, a spokesman said.

The blaze broke out early on Tuesday morning causing damage and lightly injuring three people in the building.

“From an initial investigation, we concluded that it was set on fire intentionally,” a spokesman for the Brussels prosecutors told Reuters. “At the present stage of the investigation, we have no reason to believe that this was a terrorist attack.”
